Carmen reminded me Esme. She had this motherly instinct that just kicked in when she met Renesmee. Her Spanish comments to Ray (my nickname for her, I dislike using Nessie) were so heartfelt and cute, just like the fascination people have with newborn babies. Carmen was definitely a strong female figure and independent thinker. She went against all the first impressions of Renesmee and drew her own conclusions, even with Eleazars inital protests. ~Elizabeth (formerly known as RealGirlsLikeFastCars)

Exactly!! Also, I preferred the name Nez over Nessie. Carmen had a deep affinity/compassion towards Renesmee and I liked how Renesmee lit up when Carmen accepted her and wanted to hold her - so gentle.
